Bitcoin failing as a payment method

He he he :D They are not the only processor about to drop BC payments.
 
Well yeah. I mean how on earth can you hope to transact in a currency that can fluctuate wildly over the course of a single day? And when BTC is viewed primarily as an investment vehicle, how can it possibly stabilise enough to be useful as currency?
 
Stripe is effectively running Shopify Payments as well right?

So this removes BTC from the bulk of the Shopify universe actually, necessitating that shops who still wish to accept BTC look into additional payment plugins instead of just sticking with the tried and tested default.
 
It'll be interesting to see if the Lightning Network maybe fixes Bitcoin as a payment method in the future.
